Celebrate Prayer
Yes, I think we should…celebrate prayer that is. I guess that seems kind of odd to say, let’s celebrate prayer. Well, I don’t know why we wouldn’t, because you know, it’s a pretty amazing thing. The power of prayer is real, and it’s a force to be reckoned with. Over the past few weeks, I’ve…

Community of Faith
When I started this little blog three years ago, I thought it would be a nice way to share some great pictures of sunrises and sunsets along with a scripture verse. It was meant to be a way to just say thanks to Father for the many gifts He provides every day. Now here I…

He Will Provide
This morning, I was sitting on the lanai (a Florida term for patio), spending my daily quiet time with Father. The fountain on our little lake had not yet come on, so it was indeed peaceful. I was watching as one of our many long-legged, pointy-beaked Florida birds was strolling along the bank. Before I…

Find Him
A few months ago, I shared here about a friend who had given me a little Jesus to carry with me. Ever since that day, I’ve been doing just that; I carry him in my pocket. When I reach into my pocket, it’s a constant reminder that He is always with me. It wasn’t long…

Confidence
Coming to the end of a busy week that we are capping off with our annual, actually, it’s our 69th annual Christmas Market at church, this evening and tomorrow. I love this event where local businesses come and set up their booths with some of the most amazing items. Everything from clothing to jewelry, Christmas…

Through The Valley
This morning I was reflecting on some conversations I’ve had with friends over the past few weeks. Some of them are experiencing health issues, while others are facing other life challenges. In all their situations, they hold firm in their faith and love for Father. We’ve talked about how easy it is for satan to…

No Horns
Yesterday, I shared a broadcast that Paul Harvey did back in 1965. He shared his thoughts about what he would do if he were satan, how he would get the world under his control. It was eerie because, quite frankly, everything he mentioned, well, it has happened or is happening. A priest friend of mine,…

Powerless…No
Maybe it’s because the last few years here in FL, we’ve had to deal with major storms. I suppose that’s the reason I, like many others, am following Hurricane Melissa as she makes her way to Jamaica with incredible power. It is already breaking records, and not in a good way. Hurricane Hunters clocked wind…

Prepared
Yesterday afternoon, I did the usual grocery store run. When I got home, I did something I haven’t in a while. I took the time to prep for the week. Made up a batch of the family salad dressing, restocked our homemade pickled jalapenos, and prepped for dinner all in one fell swoop. Following dinner,…

Prayers for Paradise
Living here in SW Florida, we’ve had our share of hurricanes over the past few years. So far it appears we will get through this season without a major event here in our little paradise. Unfortunately, it looks like another paradise island, Jamaica is going to get the brunt of Hurricane Melissa. This storm is…
